Study for a Career in Sport

If you have received your A-level results today and you are considering your options, you may wish to consider joining the Chesterfield FC Football & Education Programme.

The two-year programme, which is run by Chesterfield FC Community Trust, will provide students with the opportunity to study full-time on one of three BTEC/A-Level courses while training three times a week with UEFA/FA-qualified coaches.

Based at either Outwood Academy or the Technique Stadium, depending on which course they are studying, students will represent Chesterfield FC in the Under-19s National Football Youth League, competing against teams representing the likes of Manchester City, Everton, Burnley and Sunderland.

The programme will provide a pathway to gain further qualifications with the potential for students to play semi-pro football, take a scholarship abroad or progress into a job in sport.
